Best movie of this year hands down!
Console
best movie i've ever seen.
Dynamixor
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

I'm a car lover. So of course I like trucks. Obviously as I like Horror, I like Possessed or killer cars or truck movies so this fits right into what I enjoy a lot.And this film as become one of the best list. Tension man, from damn beginning to end. Which is great BTW.First kill burnout on the bridge was nice VERY NICE. I enjoy Lee's crew car/truck side and windshield shots, just amazingly beautiful. :) But the lines man, so cool. Here's a few extracts from the script but you've GOT so hear them and what follows or goes after. Very well written piece really. Man I DIG their rednecks as H3LL accent. :)"It was NOT groovy man says the bearded dude when the girl gets off. Don't be such a spa**... Alright party p00per..." Been a while I hadn't heard that so I burst out laughing. Hahaha"How many killers with chainsaw... You tell me I watch too many movies... How many damn times do I have to tell you to call me sheriff??? This is my town now go..."Camaro and Fairlane race was mad. BADASS truck shot right after was a perfect transition... Perfect mark my words!!! :DThe shadows in their face when shot through the windshield were great. Truck noise extremely LOUD that you have to concentrate to hear what they said I like, very nice way to put the emphasis on the Evil machine.GREAT characters extremely well played by the cast and BEAUTIFUL AS FREAKING H3LL SHOTS!!!Very nice soundtrack and some nice sounds around like the birds when the the uncle (I know, sheriff but I like uncle better :P) when parked was just fantastic.When the truck arrives in the warehouse and well everything in it, the lightning = perfect.Road shots are fabulous.BUT BEST OF ALL IS A GATLING!!!No movie with a Gatling gun can be bad. QUITE THE FREAKING OPPOSITE!!!So I truly enjoyed this one.And Lee boy, extremely well done my man.Can't wait for your next projects. THUMBS UP, WAAAYYY UUUPPP!!! :D

The Truck (2013) Here we have a short film about a murderous truck who begins his killing spree quite early on in the film. This is quite a low budget movie but, in my opinion, delivered very well for what it is.We start off with a (I'm assuming hippie) man dropping off a runaway girl at a crossroads, who looks as if she'd rather be anywhere but in that truck with him, and then gets quite promptly run down by our titular truck. Cut to a young man and woman named Roger and Alice, our main prey of the film, who after chatting and blustering with some folks are being harried briefly by the killer.We are then introduced to our officers-of-film, Sheriff Jack and Deputy Clarence, who do their usual cop-on-film banter, and who are our other main characters of this film. I did find the idea of trying to be threatening with a little wooden stick to be pretty funny, especially when he keeps dropping it. The teens are heading towards an old campground left to Roger via his family, to which young Alice points out what we're all thinking, yep, KILLERS! This film progresses about how you think it would for this type of story, The Truck begins hunting the teens, the officers try to stop it, and the teens try to avoid being run down in the process. That isn't to say this movie is bad, in fact, it's very good and fun killer vehicle flick. For it's budget the effects were great and the acting was far better than oh so many of the higher budget films many people praise. I especially enjoyed the rustic style and feel to this movie, was getting kind of bored with the "big city, flashy" special effects laden films with a million things going on all at once, the slow, simple pacing was quite the refreshing break. And let's face it, there are very few "killer vehicle" films out there in the first place, so I applaud Lee for going down this road (ha) when deciding where to go with this film.Overall I'd give this movie a solid 7.5/10 (which is actually high for me) it's a very fun film and I recommend this title to those needing a good, low-budget viewing. My closing comment is this: Instead of never looking for anything other than the negative, why not try to find the good things, even if just one, in a film you watch? The disappearing era where people sat down to simply enjoy a film...

A Lee Vervoort flick.Where to start this written tribute to a great actioner on wheels? Loved,Loved this flick.We got a PLYMOUTH TRAIL DUSTER from Hell,A CAMARO that needs work and yet kicks up some dust of it's own every other scene.The devices of the Bad Truck include a winch,a bloody winch.Just let your imagination dwell on that ,Because we don't do spoilers,And It's much worse than you would assume.The acting is very well done,The starring couple were great,Could have done with a love scene,But I digress.The sheriff and deputy should have been continuing characters in other movies,Seriously LEE,A sheriff with a cadillac and a deputy whose wheel chair has a Gatling Gun..'.C'mon-These be Badazz !!!

It's amazing what Lee Vervoort and crew were able to achieve with a meager budget of $6k. This movie features some intense chase scenes, and some amazing stunts that would normally only be reserved for high budget movies. It even has a really cool and unique stalking scene in a warehouse, performed almost completely while the characters remained inside their vehicles. It also features many hilarious and awesome kills and great lines. With that said this movie isn't perfect; the kills are pretty low budget, and acting shaky at points (though on the other hand some of it is surprisingly good) but it kind of adds to the charm. This is the kind of movie to watch with friends and some beers. It is very much in the tradition of low-budget 80's horror flicks.
